Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
Just the tub.

“I’m selling my high hood . This jeep was my grandfathers and I bought it out of his estate. I had plans to do a few things too it but haven’t got around to it . My grandpa had this jeep since the early 80’s it got painted and a v8 in the late 80’s . From that point on he wouldn’t drive it or let anyone else drive it . I bought it in 06 and have maybe burned 3 tanks of fuel through it just running around town . It has not been off-road since the early 80’s . My grandpa always kept it garaged and I’ve kept that up .

“We have a 1940s Jeep Willy’s project that we’re wanting to sell. We are selling it “as is”, you can see from the pictures this is a project Jeep. We just aren’t getting to it like we thought we were going to. We’re asking $500.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500 …. As Dave rightly points out, this looks to be a 3A with a 3B front clip.
Interesting hardtop.
“1953 Willys Jeep has been sitting for years outside! It is ready to be towed this weekend to the right buyer from a greeley trailer court!”

“For sale 1954 Willys CJ3B jeep. This jeep is in very good condition for it’s age and is all original.”
UPDATE: **SOLD**
This is a project. The body looks very good.
“This is a very rare Navy Jeep with original data plate and all numbers match. The drive train has been rebuilt and the sheet metal is rust free and nearly perfect condition. I am 75 and not able to complete the painting and final assembly. I have a new wiring harness and all the parts. Needs to be put back together. I have over $10,000 invested. Not the data plate list frame number and engine number. This Jeep came from a U.S. base in Japan and the body was very rusted. I purchased the very best 1955 CJ3B I could find for the body. Price: $3,500 or best offer”
It’s supposed to be a ’57, but it doesn’t have the later gauge setup. The chassis indicates it is a ’54.
